a. One of downtown Miami's most elegant high-rises, the 13-story Ingraham
Building is an outstanding example of the Italian Renaissance style interpreted
for a large commercial building. With rusticated stone walls, wrought
iron decoration, double-arched windows, and hand-painted wooden eaves,
the building evokes the design of a Florentine palace. The building was
constructed for the Model Land Company, the real estate division of Henry
Flagler's Florida East Coast Railway. The Ingraham Building was listed
in the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
